In 2024 Capybara Energy was developing a safer solution to clean energy storage in New Hampshire, but needed support to scale. CAM’s $1.1M M2I2 grant helped them move to MA, build a Woburn facility & hire MA-based talent. 
 
CAM Senior Manager Zhuqing Wang recently toured Capybara Energy’s Woburn lab with CapyBara Energy CEO Matthew Millard, who highlighted how M2I2 funding has supported the company’s growth in MA. 
 
CAM’s investment helped change the trajectory of the company, providing resources to establish its operations in MA & continue developing its energy storage technology. 
 
Capybara’s story is an exemplar of how targeted investments in advanced manufacturing can attract growing companies to MA, create local jobs & build manufacturing capacity around emerging technologies.
